Biography

Early life

DeMarco became the don of a Mafia family sometime before the early 2010s. He was also one of the strongest mobsters in New Jersey by 2012, after the fall of the Punchinello crime family. DeMarco's only son was Tony, and the two had a close relationship.

Hunting Max Payne

"Max Payne! You killed my boy! You killed my ONLY son!"
―Anthony DeMarco yelling at Max Payne, 2012.

At some point in 2012, former NYPD detective Max Payne, "slumped in a bar, drunk on self-pity", killed DeMarco's son after witnessing him strike a woman.

DeMarco was distraught and heart broken when he learned of his son's death. He then sent a large mobster hit squad to kill Max out of revenge. Max, however, was able to kill all the hitmen, and escaped to safety with his friend, Raul Passos, and help from Brewer, a mentally unstable neighbor of Max, who blew up several of DeMarco's hitmen with a bomb that was strapped to his chest.

Later at the cemetery, Max and Raul were held at gunpoint and taken to a grave site where DeMarco confronts them about killing Tony, and in a rage, hit Raul twice in the head with a shovel, forcing Max to dig their own graves before breaking down and sobbing.

Mob war

A few weeks after Max's escape to Sao Paulo, a war between the DeMarcos and the Punchinellos began. According to the newspapers and Max, this was not the first time the two mob families were at war with each other.

Anthony DeMarco's appearance seems to be based on real-life boss of the Genovese crime family, Anthony "Fat Tony" Salerno.
